  1. If you can find a single web site out there which can analyze an uploaded photo and reveal the answer, you can use that as a defense to get your cache published. Or if you know how, create such a web site...
  2. Can the cache be retrieved and replaced using a pole instead of climbing the tree? Does the cache listing say not to climb trees? From the article: That is awfully strict if you cannot move a rock or a piece of wood. A lot of hides will be illegal.
  3. ...don't forget that you need 161m of space around each stage. The stages can be as close together as you want, but each one needs to be at least 161m from other caches, stages, and finals. It's pretty saturated around these parts... Actually, no. Section I.1.7. of the guidelines state (emphasis mine): So this idea need not cover a lot of space. I used to compete in road rallyes back in my college days. There are intentional "traps" where misinterpreting the rules or missing a landmark will send a car off course. Taking the wrong path results in a penalty in the form of the wrong time or the wrong answer to a question depending upon the type of the event. In a well-designed rallye, both (or all) possible paths converge so that a contestant does not know he goofed. In the same manner, a multi-cache can have multiple paths ending up at the same final. Good luck explaining that to the reviewer... One more thing. Dad and I used to argue over whether decoy caches are a good idea. He loved the idea of several containers with all but the real one bearing a message saying something like "try again." My position is that it was unnecessarily frustrating and invites the finder to insert a log into a decoy and claim a find. I bring this up because a stage can have more than one container, each one with different coordinates for the next stage, with the cacher "choosing" which path at random depending on which one is found.
  4. This has got to be the longest power trail. Zoom in to see the historical significance of the location. http://www.geocaching.com/map/default.aspx?lat=34.67633&lng=-115.68943#?ll=34.68065,-115.69016&z=11
  5. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++1 I take it you've never done the thunderbird or train in Idaho, those containers are larger than 90% of the geocaches out there. GC code please. I don't have time right now to mess with the cache name lookup. Here Zoom out. Thanks for that one. You get a smiley... http://www.geocaching.com/map/default.aspx?lat=33.99803&lng=-98.63749&z=13
  6. What better way to improve performance. :laughing: :laughing: Following a tried and true business model for a like situation. You can have it in any color as long as it's black. :laughing: That may be the idea. Make "search" so utterly useless that nobody is left using it.
  7. I wonder why they feel the need to sign the physical logbook. You could also say that some people don't feel the need or have the desire to say thank you after someone cooks them dinner or opens the door for them. Signing the physical log IS saying "thanks for dinner." Don't expect your guest to faceplant or blog about it.
